Climate Change and Global Warming Facts and Statistics (August 2016)

With news coming out that 2015 was the warmest year on record, I thought it would be interesting to go searching for global warming facts and statistics to see just how much things really are changing and how quickly. Below is what I was able to dig up. The results were very interesting and eye-opening…

Please note that some of these numbers are easier to find than others. Many of these stats come from the governmental or scientific reports, but some are based on news reports and not necessarily official tallies. As always, all stats are linked to their source. Basically, this is the best I can find and I don’t guarantee anything to be 100% accurate.

Also, please note that this is NOT a political website. Therefore, I present curated stats and take no public position here on either side of the global climate change debate.
